Senior negotiators from China and the United States spoke\nlast weekend, after signs emerged of concessions by both sides on some\noutstanding issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Chinese Vice Premier Liu He, the chief negotiator in trade\ntalks with the United States, spoke with US Treasury Secretary Stephen Mnuchin\nand Trade Representative Robert Leitzer by telephone Saturday morning Beijing\ntime, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce said. The statement said they had\n“constructive” discussions on each side’s fundamental concerns in the\nfirst deal and agreed to stay in close and long-term contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the past week, China has removed restrictions on\npoultry imports from the United States as the Trump administration prepares to\nextend the license, which will allow US companies to continue to work with\nHuawei technology, The New York Times reported Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the administration of US President Donald Trump has\nindicated that talks with China on the first phase of the broader trade\nagreement are in the final stages, this is not a guarantee that there will be\nno further breakdown in the talks. “We are coming down to the short\nstrokes and are in communication with them every single day.\u201d White House\neconomic adviser Larry Kudlow told reporters late Thursday in Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is often the final phases of the trade agreements that\nbreak down the talks, and Trump still has not publicly indicated his approval.\nThe two sides were close to finalizing the deal just six months before the\ntrade talks collapsed, as the United States claimed China had withdrawn from\nprevious agreements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The two sides held working-level video conferences that\nfocused on issues ranging from details and timetable for Chinese purchases of\nUS farm goods to commitments to curb the theft of intellectual property claimed\nby Trump from China, according to people familiar with the discussions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
